Lota uvua musombe ne tatuende mukuabu Abalahama mu buloba bua Kanâna. Ndekelu wa bionso, Abalahama ne Lota bakapeta nyama ya bungi, ne buloba kabuvua bukumbana bua kusombayi buonso buayi to. Abalahama wakambila Lota ne: ‘Kakuena mushindu wa tuetu kusomba kabidi kaba kamue to. Wewe musue, sungula luseke luudi musue kuya, ne meme nenye luseke lukuabu.’ Bidi bileja ne: Abalahama kavua ukeba anu masanka ende to, ki mmuomu anyi?

Lota wakamona tshitupa tshia buloba tshilenga pabuipi ne tshimenga tshivuabu babikila ne: Sodoma. Tshivua ne mâyi a bungi ne bisonsa bibishi. Nunku wakasungula muaba au, kuyaye kusombelamu ne bena mu dîku diende.

Bantu ba mu Sodoma ne ba mu tshimenga tshia Amola tshivua pabuipi apu bavua benza malu mabi bikole. Eyowa, bu muvuabu benza malu mabi menemene, Yehowa wakapangadija bua kubutula bimenga abi. Kadi Nzambi uvua musue kupandisha Lota ne bena mu dîku diende, nunku wakatuma banjelu babidi bua kubadimuija ne: ‘Enzayi lukasa! Patukayi mu tshimenga etshi! Yehowa ukadi pa kutshibutula.’

Lota kavua mupatuke diakamue to. Wakatungunuka ne kujanguluka. Nanku banjelu bakakuata Lota ne mukajende ne bana bende ba bakaji babidi ku tshianza, kupatukabu nabu mu tshimenga lukasa, babambila ne: ‘Nyemayi! Nyemayi bua kupandisha mioyo yenu, kanutangidi panyima to. Nuenu batangile panyima nenufue!’

Pakafikabu mu tshimenga tshivuabu babikila ne: Soâ, Yehowa wakalokesha kapia ne sufre mu Sodoma ne Amola. Bimenga bibidi ebi  biakabutuka bionso. Pavua mukaji wa Lota mubenge kutumikila Yehowa ne mutangile panyima, wakandamuka dibue dia mukele! Kadi Lota ne bana bende ba bakaji bakapanduka bualu bavua batumikile Yehowa. Bavua ne bua kuikala babungame bikole bua muvua mukaji wa Lota mubenge kutumikila. Kadi bavua ne disanka bua muvuabu bateleje malu avua Yehowa mubambile.
